Google Ads in Troy: FAQ

How big should a Google Ads radius be for dumpster rentals in Troy?

Start around 40 miles. There is 1 listed market within 10 miles of Troy, 2 within 25 and 2 within 50, so a wide radius is needed to reach enough searchers.

Should a Troy campaign also target Albany?

Albany is 6 mi southwest of Troy. Close enough to serve from one yard — put it in its own ad group so it doesn't absorb the Troy budget.

Which keywords should a Troy roll-off company start with?

Begin with "dumpster rental troy", "roll off dumpster troy ny", "20 yard dumpster troy" and "construction dumpster troy", then add the nearby market terms and container sizes once the core terms convert.
